Feyenoord are in negotiations with TSG Hoffenheim over a transfer for 20-year-old Slovakian left-winger Leo Sauer. The German club has made multiple bids for the player, and it is said that negotiations between the two sides are ongoing. Although no agreement has been reached yet, a move to the Bundesliga is considered realistic, and Sauer is reportedly open to the move.

The amount Hoffenheim is willing to pay is not clear. Feyenoord is in a strong negotiating position because Sauer's contract runs until mid-2028. Sauer, who has 11 caps for Slovakia, joined Feyenoord in September 2023 and has also been linked with Roma. According to multiple reports from January 2026, Feyenoord's asking price was over €15 million. His current market value is €7.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
